Governance:
The Leader is in charge. His duty is to organize decisions and keep things moving. The Leader decides when a team vote must be taken, and suggests topics that need to be discussed. The Leader always acts as the tie-breaker, and has the ability to over-rule the results of a vote if he decides it is in the best interest of the team.
The Second in Command is the Leaders chief lieutenant. He helps with leader chores, and is responsible for the organization of votes and elections. The Second in Command also helps to keep things moving.
The Chief Diplomat is responsible for dealing with other empires. The Chief Diplomat is responsible for appointing ambassadors, organizing our foreign policy, and keeping track of alliances and threats. If an appointed ambassador is not maintaining communications with other teams in a timely manner, it is the Chief Diplomats responsibility to step in.
The Elector-General has the singular power to oversee elections. Any team member can message this official, privately or publicly, to request an election, which he will then call without mention of requester(s).
